As the king ordered, the golden scorpion would take two days a month to go to the porcelain clay production area to recycle hydrated alumina and transport it to the iron plant to watch the firing process throughout.

The No. 2 furnace under construction cannot be used to burn alumina crystals, and this work can only be done by using a No. 1 furnace with a sufficiently high temperature.

The golden scorpion will not burn this thing, nor does she need to do it. She only needs to ensure that the iron factory workers do not see the cooled crystals.

To achieve this goal, a ceramic factory that has been separated from the iron factory was also specially made into a special-shaped crucible, with a flat one with a lid.

This is the third time that the Golden Scorpion has been on site to supervise the worker. At the same time, the crucible has also been replaced. In fact, there are situations that the workers don’t know. Small particles of alumina crystals were added to the powder burned this time, called seeds.

There is only one purpose, to make a large enough aluminum oxide crystal.

Jin Scorpio would not continue to do this job. He also followed her and two female soldiers from the garrison.

The two were the best female soldiers in the garrison training so far.

They were just training with the garrison troops, but they were actually female soldiers in the inner court guards' sequence. If nothing unexpected happens, the two will be Jin Scorpio's direct subordinates in the future.

The three of them kept the crucible and cooled naturally, loading the crucible together with the car to take it away.

I would not go directly to the prop store, but to the Royal Court Warehouse located on the second stairs of the Royal Court Tree.

In the future, this warehouse will also be handed over to the garrison troops to guard the garrison. Now the city guards will be responsible for the registration work.

Registered into the warehouse as bauxite purified substance.

Next, I went to the prop store. Because I had been interrupted by passers-by citizens when I entered the store, I asked the adjutant to stay outside the door. Anyway, the business of the store was not good, and I might not have a single customer if I blocked for more than ten minutes.

"Mr. Oran, how are your preparations going?" Jin Scorpion walked into the store, still as empty as before.

"What should I call you?"

"Natasha, call me Natasha." This is an extremely common name. Golden Scorpion doesn't like to use it, but now that she doesn't become a bandit, she still needs to have a serious name.

"Ms. Natasha, the alchemist I mentioned last month has arrived, but it still needs a magician to advance the research."

It has been two months since the sample was sent. Last time I said I had to wait for someone, but it seems that it was not enough.

A bit slow.

Jin Scorpio nodded: "I wish you success in your research."

Planning to leave, Oran hurriedly spoke, he was a little embarrassed: "Well, I hope to get some alumina crystals in advance, I can exchange them for gold!"

Although it is an alumina crystal, both sides know that it is a gem and it is not a bad product.

Because of this, Oran did not speak up immediately, and thought that it would be easier to get it in advance if the kings of the two tribes were anxious. Unexpectedly, it was an indifferent attitude.

A faint smile appeared on the corner of the golden scorpion's mouth, but he did not make any decisions and did things according to the king's instructions:

"Alumina crystals are not intended to be sold publicly for the time being, so they will not accept exchanges in gold. You can get them in advance, and there are two ways to choose from them.

Article 1: You must sign a binding agreement to ensure that the new technologies generated in this cooperation cannot be sold to others without our permission. The specific restrictions will be waited for you to achieve results. Now you can only confirm that you will not be bound by using them yourself.

Article 2: Pledge of materials. Every time you withdraw alumina crystals, you need to pledge certain property, which will be more expensive than buying gems in the market. These property will be returned to you after the project is completed."

I have heard of the first method. It is usually only encountered by military magicians educated by public funds in certain kingdoms.

The second type is very reasonable, but it doesn't work because Oran doesn't have that much money!

Magic crystals are more expensive than gold, and gems are even more expensive.

According to the measurement of Phoenix City, when the magic crystal rough stone arrives in the hands of the stonemason, the price per 100 grams is between 24 and 40 gold coins. The price of the mage chooses to wither himself is also the same price. The price of the semi-finished magic crystal that is formed needs to rise to 40 to 60%. It is more expensive than the gold of the same heaviness, but it is still within the same order of magnitude.

The most serious problem with gems is that they are not big enough. Gems that are not big enough have no meaning to the mage, but those who are big enough have to compete with the princes and nobles from all over the country.

A gem of 100 grams is not the level of Oran. Even if it is twenty grams, the market price of gems of this size is 800 gold coins and the fluctuation is very large. If someone grabs it, it will be carried to more than a thousand gold coins at any time, and it is not impossible for two thousand to be 2,000.

The gem of forty grams is at least four times the price of twenty grams of gems. Phoenix City's gems are artificial, and their size may be outrageous. Natasha had said before that gem of might be made the size of a human head. If that size of gem is not artificial, if it is really sold, the money you get is enough to buy at least a dozen cities of small kingdoms.

Even if the wizard has money, he cannot afford to pay the pledge based on this price.

"I'll choose the first one."

Helpless, it's not.

Whether it is level or financial resources, Oran had no chance to get in touch with large-scale gem experiments, which may be his only chance in his life. In addition, he agreed to the transaction not to make money by selling technology, but to gain insight into the essence of magic, and complete the first transformation of the mage to arrive at the fifth ring.

Jin Scorpion was not surprised by the answer to Auran. Even if he chose the second one now, could anyone really not change the color of the basin-sized alumina crystal?

Moreover, according to the king's instructions, once he chooses the second item, he will really send people to various places to consult the gem price and make a pledge table. The amount of pledge that will be supported by the entire project must be astronomical, and it is definitely not something that a mage can take out by himself.

When Wang explained, he said that if the mage could take out so much money, it would only mean that the entire world's economy was completely in a state of collapse. At that time, he would be asked to pay the pledge of grain to see if the money could buy food.

"Since you have made a choice, we will do it now. The alumina crystals handed over to you this time will be a little more. I will ask a big shot to testify. You can prepare the agreement yourself. I only need the paper agreement written in the official language."

After the Golden Scorpion gave the instructions, he went out to do business.

First go to Wangting Warehouse to pick up the goods and register it as alumina rough stone.

The warehouse is registered as a bauxite purified substance, but the warehouse is a raw aluminum oxide stone, which is not up to par with the accounts. However, Wang explained that it was just to avoid theft of custody, and the garrison troops would change it to their real name after taking over.

Three batches of goods were produced in more than two months and they would not be given to the prop store. The two largest pieces were left in the warehouse and the rest were packed and taken away.

Go to the palace and invite Li Xiang to come.

Li Xiang didn't have to do anything, just stand on the scene, mainly to avoid the situation where Jin Scorpion and the adjutant could not handle the mage.

The agreement was also taken by Li Xiang to take credit. If there was no tool, Jin Scorpion, what was wrong? Of course, Wang Qi will add some attributes to her later as a reward.
Chapter completed!
